Royal Wedding Watch Party Tonight

Thursday, 28 April 2011 11:13

As with any wedding obsessed group, we will be having a royal wedding slumber watch party tonight. Yes! We’re going over to Samantha’s house and then will be staying up all night to watch!!! We can’t wait and have been planning the menu for a long time. Alex suggested scones and tea, champagne and sandwiches, and some good old fashioned English beer! We’ll also have lots of chocolate and coffee in case some of us start to dose off.

So, if any of you are interested, here are the top 5 things we’ll be watching for at the royal wedding:

1. Kate Middleton Wedding Shoes – Well, of course! Since we’re all obsessed with shoes, we can’t wait to see what Kate has chosen. High heels or low heels, bridal flats or wedges – most of us think she’s going to go for something comfortable, but you never know. Plus, she is really comfortable in pumps so she might just go with a smart pair of those decorated in some fabulous jewelry.

2. Bridal Gown

We think this is one of the most anticipated items in history. So many people have been guessing what Kate is going to choose – Stella McCartney or Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen? Catherine Walker or Elizabeth Emanuel? Big princess style or elegant trumpet? A-line? Long evening gown? Personally, our top guess is something very elegant. We just can’t see Kate in a big ball gown like Princess Di. It just doesn’t seem to be her style given all of her elegant long lean lines. She is also tall enough to pull off an elegant trumpet. The trumpet style dress will allow her to get in the frills and the rhinestones and some poof, but also allow her to show off her even skinnier, gorgeous hips and waist.

3. Hair

Rumor has it that Kate was seen leaving her family home this past Tuesday with a perfect chignon – that swept back style in a perfect bun. This has happened twice in the past few weeks causing a lot of people to speculate that this will be her hairstyle of choice. Plus, with possible weather conditions and the fact that she will have to travel and walk around all day, we think the swept back hair is the perfect choice for staying in place and not looking messy at any angle. We love her normal long layers, but we think that stylists will have concerns about certain picture angles if the wind picks up. So, that’s our guess for Kate Middleton wedding hair, but you never know.

4. Jewelry

This is something we can’t wait to see. A princess and future queen has to have some fantastic jewelry. It is going to be diamonds or sapphires or emeralds? Rumor has it that she can borrow almost anything from the queen. If that is the case, her selection will be so vast. The question is, will she choose something blue and kill two birds with one stone? Will she just wear a necklace or earrings and a bracelet? All we know is that any jewelry she wants, she will get! So, we can’t see what sparklers she’ll be wearing.

5. Flowers

Finally, for us, we can’t wait to see what flowers will be decorating the ceremony and what her bouquet will look like? One thing we’ve heard is that it is very important which flowers she has chosen since each flower has a significant meaning and that the majority of the flowers will come from Windsor Great Park. Another thing we know is that there will be six English Field Maples and 2 Hornbeams lining the aisles. All of the flowers and trees will be replanted after they are used which makes the royal couple very green.

So, what are your guesses? Are you and your friends having a viewing party? Will any of you be able to stay awake? Let us know what your thoughts are!!!
